Lousy article. For example, the author complains about a supposed 'lesson learned' that says (shortened) "If so-and-so happens it may be because of A, or it may be because of B". His complaint is "except that it may be because of C or D".

But the 'lesson' he presented never claimed to be an exclusive either-or. It just says "here are two possible explanations for something".

There's sloppy thinking like this throughout. Thumbs down for me.
